If the work done in stretching a wire by...

If the work done in stretching a wire by `1mm` is `2J`, then work necessary for stretching another wire of same material but with double radius of cross -section and half of the length by `1 mm` is

A

`1/4J`

B

`4J`

C

`8J`

D

`16J`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`W=1/2F/_\l`
`W=1/2xx(Ypir^(2)/_\l)/l/_\l `and `Y=(Fl)/(pir^(2)/_\l)`
or `W=(Ypir^(2)/_\l^(2))/(2l)` and `F=(Ypir^(2)/_\l)/l`
or `Wprop(r^(2))/l, W'prop((2r)^(2)2)/l`
`W'=W=8` or `W'=8xx2J=16J`

A wire of length L and radius r is clamped at one end. On stretching the other end of the wire with a force F, the increase in its length is 1. If another wire of same material but of length 2L and radius 2r is stretched with a force 2F, the increase in its leagth will be

Statement I: A wire of uniform cross-section and uniform resistivity is connected across an ideal cell. Now the length of the wire is doubled keeping volume of the wire constant. The drift velocity of electrons after stretching the wire becomes one-fouth of what it was before stretching the wire. Statement II: If a wire (of uniform resistivity and uniform cross section) of length l_0 is stretched to length nl_0 , then its resistance becomes n^2 times of what it was before stretching the wire (the volume of wire is kept constant in stretching process). Further at constant potential difference, current is inversely proportional to resistance. Finally, drift velocity of free electron is directly proportional to current and inversely proportional to cross-sectional area of current carrying wire.
